I can see myself using the ipod in the classroom as another tool to help students acquire knowledge and show mastery. Apps like the interactive response system give me an easy and quick way to assess student knowledge. With that feedback, instruction can be altered to be more successful. I see the ipod being especially useful for individual use, as well. Math, grammar and geography game and flashcard apps can be used by students to brush up on or enhance their skills. The voice memo app also provides an easy way to make voice threads for digital products made by students.
Personal use:
My ipod has become apart of my daily life. Using it to track training, check email, the weather and lots of other daily habits. I like the feeling of being able to have access to information in the palm of my hand without having to drag out the laptop or fire up the pc. It's convenience is amazing, when there is wifi available of course.
